206 – Lucia (0.5)
“What on earth is it?”
A separate building at night when it is not yet dark.
Latera, who was left behind with Lucia, grumbled with a distressed face.
“He said, ‘I will protect the world from now on, so take care of Lucia and the house.’ At first, I thought he was joking, but then he left alone like that.”
The lights flickering over the hill are mesmerizing. Latera continued speaking with her eyes fixed on the window.
“Of course, I am not a child that the hero gave away for free, but saving the world means doing something worthy of a hero. Then, of course, as the hero’s best friend, I have to join in…”
“I guess sometimes you want to be alone.”
Sarak – Lucia absent-mindedly turned the pages of the magic book. It was a magic book that Siron had been reading, and he read it so intently that there were many personally added annotations, and even though it was not long ago published, the ends of the paper were tattered.
“Why do I say this, but usually boys of that age need more alone time? Even if Siron is a hero and you are his guardian angel, you should at least distinguish between public life and life.”
“Time alone?”
“Yes, heroes are people too.”
“hmm…”
Latera looked away from the window, placed her hand on her chin and thought deeply. I checked whether my actions so far had been too immature, and I also considered whether Siron would have felt uncomfortable because he was with Latera at all times, as Lucia said.
However, looking back on his actions so far, he never showed any sign of dislike for Siron being with Latera. Latera is where you can see the human soul. Even without saying a word or taking action, Siron did not care at all that he was with Latera.
…Even when mixing with the unclean and vulgar demon, Siron did not care about Latera… so she could not sympathize with Lucia’s words.

Latera asked Lucia in return because of her heart that was becoming more and more complicated instead of being refreshed.
“How was Kylie?”
“Shh!”
Lucia was startled and looked around. Occasionally, Latera would call her Kylie, assuming she was certain that she was alone with Lucia, but Lucia was afraid that her identity would be discovered each time.
“Just call me Lucia! What Kylie?”
“Don’t worry. Seira-sama has gone out and the servants are downstairs, so no one is listening.”
“J-Really. Couldn’t you ask for permission next time?”
Lucia checked her surroundings again and sighed. Even so, I do not discourage Latera. Even though it had been quite a while since his identity was discovered, Lucia felt that Latera would also have been cautious, considering that Siron did not know his past life.
“Hmm. What am I… I am a very humane person, no different from 500 years ago.”
Lucia calmed her startled heart and looked back on the question.
“Then, Lucia, did you need some alone time too?”
“…I feel embarrassed because you keep saying that, but I need time to be alone other than when I’m running errands or taking a bath.”
“…”
“In my case, I shed a lot of tears because I’m very sensitive. Every time something heartbreaking happened, I cried in the tent and my colleagues did their best to pretend they didn’t notice?”
“is that so?”
“Yes, it was difficult to create a personal space due to the situation, but after shedding a lot of tears, I calmed down and was able to move on to my next destination the next day as if nothing had happened.”
Lucia looked at Latera and recalled an incident from several years ago.
In Braham, Lucia saw Siron cry for the first time. I was embarrassed because he often treated me lightly and had a playful tone.
Although the location was her own grave, Lucia thought that Siron’s tears would not be too overwhelming for them to arrive at his ancestor’s grave. This is because, from the moment I saw his face, I felt emotions such as sadness or regret rather than emotion.
I really wanted to ask her why she was crying, but even after that, Lucia didn’t delve into that part. Based on her past experiences, she firmly believed that it was right to pretend not to notice in cases like this.
“And… you said you went to the mansion, so didn’t you mean you were summoned by Lady Eldrina? I guess you were summoned because of Siriel’s business.”
“Are you engaged?”
“…Yes, engagement.”
Lucia muttered in a weak voice. I tried not to be conscious of it, but perhaps because it is so closely tied to reality, it is thrust into Lucia’s eyes even if she does not want it to be.
Lucia took a deep breath because her chest suddenly felt tight.
“It must have been an atmosphere where sensitive topics were discussed. No matter how pretty your uncle is, looking at Eldrina’s personality, hehehe. He probably doesn’t like the idea of someone eavesdropping while he’s having a conversation. Huh…”
“…”
“Yes, this is Siron and Siriel’s business. hahahaha, it’s not the meeting of families, and it’s not the place for me, the younger sister, and you, the hero’s companion, to get involved. Huh…”
“Are you okay?”
Latera approached Lucia, whose complexion had been looking bad a little while ago.
“…It’s okay. I haven’t digested the dinner I ate a while ago yet.”
Lucia continued speaking, pounding her chest, unable to let go of her frustration.
“Having someone follow you around and watch you all day. To be honest, even if it were me, it would be a burden. If we get married safely like this… we will also be doing the work of a married couple.”
Gulp – Lucia drank the water left on the bedside. Even as I was talking, my lips and throat were so dry that I emptied the entire glass in an instant.
“…It’s not like you’re watching us even when we’re doing things as a couple.”
“Well, that can’t be possible!”
Latera, startled, shook her head. Sleeping with the devil was something to be condemned, but sleeping with a married couple is a blessing for creating a new life. It was not something that Latera would be involved in, even if it caused a bad friction with Siriel.
Rather… Latera wanted to respect Shiron for such a thing. Shiron, a human, not a hero.
Isn’t there a saying that a hero is the three best concubines?
Latera also liked Shiron not holding the holy sword… so she swallowed and rubbed her burning cheeks.
“So… I’m going to take a walk for a while. Maybe it’s because of the smell of oil. My head is a little dizzy.”
“Everyone, please go.”
Latera waved at Lucia as she left the room.
Lucia, perhaps in a hurry, stooped and went down the stairs.
Again and again
Creak- Creak- Creak-
A loud creaking sound is heard today.
The reason why Lucia became like this… was because of the embarrassing scene that had filled her mind earlier.
Every time Lucia became aware of the future in which Siron and Siriel would become friends, she felt troubled as severe thoughts filled her head. Today, the severity was so severe that it even affected her physical condition.
Before leaving for Braham. I witnessed the scene of Siriel and Siron kissing each other right in front of me. Although she had been conscious of it from then on, as the reality of her engagement approached, Lucia could not vaguely pass it off as someone else’s business.
Lucia herself knew that her feelings toward Siron were complicated.
But it didn’t mean I liked Siron.
‘This…’
Lucia, unusually, could not explain her feelings.
To put it again, realizing the reality that Siron and Siriel were connected made Lucia’s heart feel tight.
What was decisive was the conversation with Latera.
A couple’s affair.
For Lucia, marriage was not a contract that linked one family to another, but rather a ritual performed before starting a family, procreating, and producing offspring. Not only had it not been long since he accepted that he was a nobleman. Girls of the same age often talk about dirty things as a topic of conversation.
Lucia,
I imagined a scene where Siron and Siriel were doing something like that.
The ancient appearance of Siron is imagined through the clothes revealed over the black clothes.
It wasn’t difficult to imagine Siriel’s naked body because I had seen it often.
What about s*xual knowledge?
Lucia didn’t really look at s*x education, but she had seen a lot of soldiers pounding the buttocks of prostitutes in temporary brothels set up on battlefields. I have seen many high-ranking noblemen massaging the breasts of farm workers while drinking.
Yura and Seira both hated such positions, but Andrze and Vinella, one of the other colleagues, were people who were a little far from noble… In other words, they were ordinary human beings suitable for that era, and they often enjoyed drinking with high-ranking people. ,
Lucia could very easily imagine how s*xual intercourse between a man and a woman takes place.
They covet each other’s bodies as they were when they were born. The man and woman’s belly buttons touch each other, and they move for a few moments, then the woman makes a moaning sound, and the woman as well as the man gets so excited that she wants to die, gets even more excited, screams, and moans…
– Heh heh.
– Mandible. brother More, three more!
Yes, in this way.
An incomparably shallow moan.
‘I must be really crazy. I even hear a dog-like hallucination. I’ll turn! really.’
It seems that the imagination of Shiron and Siriel yearning for each other’s love eventually led to useless auditory hallucinations. Lucia shook her head to get rid of the harsh thoughts.
– Yes, yes, yes, I really like it, oppa.
However, for some reason, no matter how much I tried to shake my head or hit the honey chestnuts, the auditory hallucinations lingering in my ears would not go away.
It felt so real that I thought it was reality and not a dream…
-Siriel.
“…”
Stand tall.
Lucia’s steps stopped.
Geek-
My head turns like a broken clock. The place where her eyes were directed was the Mana training room set up in one corner of the training hall.
thud-
What is the vibration that seems to resonate throughout the body?
“…”
thud-
The pain didn’t stop.
gulp-
Thump-thump-thump-
Lucia’s face gets hotter to the beat. It was natural to notice it even if you didn’t want it to.
I’m sure there’s a scene happening in that building that you can only picture in your head.
Lucia closed her eyes tightly, trying to turn her mind away from that building.
But that wasn’t the case.
As my vision was blocked, my remaining senses became more sensitive… and I realized the nature of the ringing that was now hitting my entire body.
‘…I feel like my heart will explode.’
In order to stop being conscious of the heartbeat, I have no choice but to open my eyes again.
Did I open my eyes like that?
Lucia couldn’t even believe where she was anymore.
“…”
“Oppaaa♡!”
What was reflected in the golden eyes was a scene that was more embarrassing and vulgar than I had imagined.
“…”
Now, not only my chest but my entire body was throbbing. Of course, your breathing becomes heavy and your body heats up.
Lucia placed her hand to find the most throbbing spot.
This place was so painful that I felt like I was going to lose my mind, so Lucia’s touch was careful and careful, like applying ointment to a painful wound.
*
wheein-
Even though it was a sunny morning, the wind was still strong. Yuma, the manager of the Castle of Dawn, looked at the shaking window and then lowered his gaze.
There was a letter with a red seal stamped on it.
[Lucia Prien]
Yuma recalled the face of the girl who seldom opened her heart to me. Red hair and golden eyes. The name of the girl who looked just like the family head was written as the sender.
“Your lady?”
“Yes, he sent a letter in advance saying that he would like to see the head of the family soon.”
The one who answered was Ancia. The last thing I remembered was Lucia’s face, which was so full of worry that it looked like she was about to die at any moment, and the atmosphere was so cold that I couldn’t even ask her why she wanted to see Glenn Frien.
“…Is that so.”
Yuma removed the wax with a stern expression.
